After closing more than half their stores and making you sign up for Plus to get free shipping (no matter how much you spend), Sam’s has to give away memberships.
They didn’t close half their stores. Chill out.
Well, we had 20 locations in my state and 7 were closed in 2018 so that was a lot. Illinois must have gotten the worse of it, other than Washington where they pulled out entirely. That didn’t bother me as much as losing the Business membership and adding shipping costs.
I like Sam’s, they have several items I can’t get at Costco. But changes like that make it harder to justify actually paying for a membership. Luckily, they give away memberships like this.
7/20=about 35%
They closed roughly 10% of their stores in 2018. I have a good friend who is a hardcore exaggerator so I have to laugh when I see this personality type out and about.
Yes, I own that overstatement. We must of gotten hit with more than most of the country in Illinois but not half, 35% as you pointed out. I used to have on right down the road and another 15 minutes away. Sadly both closed and the nearest is 30 minutes. I won’t pay for a membership there, I like Sam’s, but an hour driving is only worth a few times a year.
Agreed, especially when you pay as much taxes as you do and your state is one recession and stock market crash from bankruptcy.
You’re giving us too much credit. It’s one recession OR stock market crash… 🙂
I did the Reddit steps linked above in the post. Got 2 x $20 and $10 gift cards in my order history and got $10 from Dosh and $10 from Rakuten plus $90 Instant Savings, so it’s like Sam’s is paying me for this year! Make sure not to use the long link with all the coupons combined listed in the comments. I tried that twice and got nothing.

Did they email you all gift cards?
Does anyone see a way you can stack the AMEX offer to this? samsclub.com/joinamex will not allow for any promotional codes
I successfully stacked 3 offers in November. Sent a referral, opened that link. New tab with the amex link, and the final tab with the sam’s offer where I filled out the info. Got $10 for the referee, several weeks for the Amex offer but it paid out without calling, and the $20 gift card/freebies from Sam’s.
How long did they email you the $20 gift card? I signed up for the membership online a week ago and have not received the giftcard.
Should have it by now, 7 days max I think. I had to chat with them to get it and they sent it to me but it turned out I had it all along, it got caught up in my sp*m filter. The one chat sent me was the same one.
You don’t have to use Amex link — you just pay directly with Amex card
In the past you haven’t had to use that link
Unfortunately I just got a membership 5 days before this, stacking the Amex deal with a $20 gift card emailed to me, making it “only” free. I can confirm that purchasing a new membership under a different link than the Amex one still works. The Amex offer credited my account after 5 days. My statement had 2 charges, one for “Samsclub.com membership” and a separate charge for the sales tax.
This offer isn’t quite as good as a straight up gift card(which can be used at wal-mart, more useful for me), but for $25 more that’s not bad. Sam’s is now a trip once every few weeks for a couple specific things, 90% of my shopping is done at Costco. My club turned the old, large, customer service desk into in-club pickup, and the customer service is now a large square desk with one associate at an iPad station and 3 iPads with self-service options. Stark contrast to Costco where the front desk is a large operation and price adjustments of even $3 are done via a written log, computer transaction, and manager key override.
last time i did an sam’s club deal amex wouldn’t honor the credit because i didn’t sign up through their link.
I came to ask this. Any chance it won’t stack since they’re two different links? I don’t see a spot for the promo code in the /JoinAMEX link
There is no offer code with the amex link, it’s contained within the web page address it takes you to.
I just signed up 5 days ago with a different link for a $20 gift card upon joining. Same looking page just different offer and tags in the web page address. The Amex offer went through just fine.
Does anyone know what this means? Not a Sam’s member and don’t know how it works.
“$45 offer* is an Instant Savings** offer and loads directly onto your membership card within 72 hours of joining.”
It’s a discount that is applied at checkout. (On your future purchase)
Does it have many restrictions like $100 off $45, or is it easy to use like cash?
items with individual Instant Savings** offers do not qualify for the $45 offer*. Other restrictions apply. Not sure if anything worth to buy with the $45
last time I bought gift cards
gift cards are excluded in the terms
Update: Got both $45 and referral $20
treasure hunt isn’t a thing anymore
Done, thanks
Thanks Doc. Worked 🙂
Can the $45 loaded to the membership card be used at Sam’s Club gas stations?
Best guess: Have to convert $45 credit to physical GC to use at the pump.
gas purchase is excluded in the terms
Hey
William Charles there is another Amex offer: Spend $30+ at samsclub.com, get $15 back. I don’t have the $25 offer but do have the one I mentioned.
memberships are coded differently. The $15 back on $30 is for shopping.
dang, no congrats email. Lets see if it still posts
say what? what steps did you do?
so it does not work? are you certain have you check spam folder
T&Cs say the credit may take 72 hours. I tried a GC purchase immediately after signing up (getting a fraud alert from Amex that I need to clear in the process) but didn’t see the check-out credit. Waiting for the weekend. Not so easy to spend just over $45 here so probably going to burn a dollar or two on a usable GC and hope the Amex stack works using DoC’s link (all hail DoC).
Items purchased with individual Instant Savings offers are not eligible for this $45 offer. Purchases of alcoholic beverages, tobacco, milk, fuel, pharmacy, gift cards, memberships or shipping costs are not included in this offer.
last time (in February, 2019) it worked for me using the $45 on e-gift cards.. I bought Nintendo e-shop e-gift cards with the $45 credit from the Sam’s Club web site. Hope it’s still the same? I was planning to do the same thing again.
And without the Amex credit stack (waiting for that to show up) I think it is hard to break even on this offer if shipping is involved.
Good point
Ash , but no, I don’t
Didn’t get it too. Not too worried though can just chat the reps and get it
Also, did u try to stack other offer of the $20 GC ?
Yes and yes. Already got $20 gc so far so waiting on $45 code and amex
Besides, $45 credit isnt instant ? Did u buy gc ?
Not sure. Followed the reddit steps and got 1 $20 gc within an hr and rokuten registered, should still have another $20 and $10 coming, you should see it in your purchase history if it stacks correctly. Chatted Sam’s about the $45 and was told it’d take 3 days
do you have a link to the steps posted on reddit?
It’s in the post: https://www.reddit.com/user/bob_barker_2000/comments/bw0czl/sams_club_1year_membership_with_60_bonus/
What do you plan to tell the chat rep? Referral and this offer is not supposed to stack officially. Last time I remember that agent asked which offer did you sign up with ? They can easily find out that you already received the referral GC and deny the $45!
you can tell them you found the 4x gift card + $45 “super promo” on Doctor of Credit.
Are you being sarcastic?
I did this offer in the past. It may be different now that AmEx needs you to use a certain link. But it worked out well last time. Got the $45 loaded and used the $45 to buy Nintendo eshop gift cards. and got all of the other cash back. Not sure if things are different now with the deal?
Can one use the $45 Samsclub credit loaded onto the account spread across multiple less than $45 orders (as there is a 79day period within which it needs to be used up) or does it need to be used in one shot ?
My membership is good through April and I am on the fence if I want to sign up again which essentially means wasting 3 months of membership
Anyone on the same boat ?
One purchase, you would have 60 days to use it per the terms.
Given that this is essentially a free membership, your really not losing three months. Plus, If you’re stacking with Amex, that deal ends in two days.
Here’s link circulating on SD that stacks multiple offers without you having to do anything.
$45 instant+$25 amex offer+$20 gift card+$20 gift card+$10 gift card (not visible until after signup) should be useable even by people not using amex as all it does it tell amex if an amex is used that this is a new signup.

Also here is proof that it all stacked and that the $10 gift card actually posted to my account in orders since I know some wouldn’t believe without a pic. I sent myself the coupon to *the email I signed up with* just to be safe in case there is a repeat of last year where the instant savings disappear for my protection.

Great. Thanks. But does this link gives u an option to enter the $45 savings code ?
Randall
And Amex $25 credit works for sure ?
You don’t enter the $45 savings code as it is part of the link. *The promo code is just for in store signups*. The $45 instant savings can take up to 72 hours to become active. $25 amex credit works. The post itself says $25 amex credit will post (with or without the link) just have to wait for transaction to post to credit card. I used this link because it shows that I signed up with amex link (I took screenshot to show amex just in case). Just make sure you take pictures along the way showing all the offers and the last screen which shows you signed up and what they are sending you via email.
Same here… Just click the link again and all the offers gone and price is $0 now. Did i missed out on all the gift cards?
same here, hopefully this issue fixes itself
when you went to sams, did they give you the $45 off back in savings, because i went today and they say i dont have that in my account, i got no savings
Same here, I used the link, but my Order Details screen shows Sam’s Savings Membership, none of the gift cards. I did get a message after submitting payment that they would be sent via email. Hopefully they come through.
Do you have a link to the Slickdeals post that explains how to do all this? I found the thread on SD but can’t find the comment you’re referring to
You sir, are a saint. Thank you.
Wow. thank you for that link Randall! Hope it all stacks.
does it take time to show the stacks? I got nothing but the membership on my order status.
I appears that this link isn’t working, per comments here and on SD.
yeah don’t do it, it showed all the savings when i signed up and paid, but i was never sent any gift cards and no promotions show on my account
when you went to sams, did they give you the $45 off back in savings, because i went today and they say i dont have that in my account, i got no savings
Sam’s Club through chat says that there is no promo on my account after going through that link. They said I should call their member team. Well, that sucks…
What did you do to communicate with them?
On the order history screen there is a “Chat with us” link.
hi! im new here, can any 1 pls explain in more words & give a bit more details, 1) whats the $10 credit with dosh, how do i get it? 2) to get the $25 amex credit i dont have to signup via their link (at other CC offers they usually pointing that you must do it via their link), can i be sure i will get it, any 1 with experience?
& also how do i signup via a referral link to get the credits/GC, when doing via these links doesn’t come up the $45 credit? pls help thanks?
Membership expires 2 weeks ago. Can I use this to renew without opening a new account?
You should probably just use a new email to be safe
I Just used this link and it showed all these four coupons, I am only joining Sams club because its free, what’s your experience at Sams club?

Did this link work? other below are reporting that these combined offer links may not be working?
it worked for me, it showed me a screen with the confirmation
Do you also see all the GCs in your account orders history ?
Did the two 20 egift carda appeared?
What does it mean those $45 dollars un instant savings using the above link (is it that can I buy anything with the $45)?
The screen confirmation doesn’t mean it worked. Need to see the gift cards in the order history, which it doesn’t. Bummed I burned my Amex offer on that link this morning.
I got a pop up after completing the membership with this info:
Thanks for joining! Your AMEX statement credit will be applied in approximately 90 days. Refer your friends and get a $10 e-gift card when they join. Refer now!
Thank you for joining Sam’s Club! Your $45 in Instant Savings will be added to your membership within 48 hours.
Your $20 e-gift card will be emailed to you soon. Experience a faster, more convenient way to shop. Download Sam’s Club App!
Your $20 e-gift card will be emailed to you soon. Experience a faster, more convenient way to shop.
I am sure its going to be posted, its jist not showing in the orders page. I will wait for 1-2 days and if not will cancel the membership
I’ll get the Amex offer, that’s not in question. But I could have gotten a referral or another link to get the gift cards too. Those are not showing up in the order history as that link was showing last night.
Did you receive the 2 $20 egift cards. If you dont see it in your order history is there any way you could get it call them up?
